why don't you go Tein Stech? They are cheaper than sportlines and have a higher spring rate.

where did you get that information, redlineracer? This is what I found, according to a FAQ I read in NICO.

STOCK
Spring Rate - F : 1.6kg/mm
Spring Rate - R : 2.0kg/mm
Ride Height - F : 0"
Ride Height - R : 0"

EIBACH SPORTLINE
Spring Rate - F : 1.92~2.0kg/mm
Spring Rate - R : 2.4~2.5kg/mm
Ride Height - F : -2.2"
Ride Height - R : -2.1"

TEIN S-TECH
(progressive, TEIN only lists the maximal rate)
Spring Rate - F : 3.7
Spring Rate - R : 3.2
Ride Height - F : -1.5"
Ride Height - R : -1.2"

here's the link: http://www.nissaninfiniticlub.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=11638

Given that 1kg/mm = 55.88 lb/in, the maximal spring rate for the Sportlines are 112 lb/in FRONT, 140 lb/in REAR.
The maximal spring rate for S-Techs would then be 207 lb/in FRONT, 179 lb/in REAR

Am I missing something? It looks like the S-Tech has a stiffer spring rate.
